Japan wanted more resources because at the time it was very far back in technology and incomes to bring in tourists. A war was brought out between China, and Korea over Korea's resources of iron and coal. Japan did win the war, and won over Korea as well as Taiwan even with it's rather small army. Unfortunately Russia also became interested in Korea's coal and iron, and soon fought to control the land of Korea.
